Passive Agent Detects Linux Server Network Interafces, but Shows No Traffic

[[email protected]]

I'm using Zabbix 6.2 to monitor a Rocky Linux 8.5 server using the Linux passive agent. It detects disk usage, CPU, memory, etc. just fine. However, with network interfaces, it detects the interfaces but shows zero traffic. Did I do something incorrect? .

I did notice this message in the Linux by Zabbix Agent description. Is that the issue? If so, how do I capture the interface stats?
.

Official Linux template. Requires agent of Zabbix 3.0.14, 3.4.5 and 4.0.0 or newer.

Known Issues:

Description: Network discovery. Zabbix agent as of 4.2 doesn't support items such as net.if.status, net.if.speed.

Lol, now I feel stupid. I never noticed that the date range in the upper right was defaulting to: 12/6 - 12/6. I assumed it would always default to today. I changed it to: 12/6 - 12/8 and now I see data in the main graph.

The network traffic is shown in items net.if.in and net.if.out (https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...s/zabbix_agent). I can confirm that they are working normally (with whatever agent version I have ever used, currently this is 6.0.9):



What is the network interface name that you use on the RL server? What does the latest values look like? For example here:

The main graph shows no data for bond0...




But the Latest values look correct.



And if I click the Graph button to the right of (for example) Bits sent, that also looks correct.

When did you start collecting data? The "Bits sent" graph is from today but the "Network traffic" graph is from two days ago. Should it have any data there?

I first created the host and assigned the template (Linux by agent) 2 days ago.

Can you show the Bits sent and Network traffic graphs from the same timespan?
